The presence of cyt genes was investigated in 80 type strains of Bacillus thuringiensis and 143 isolates obtained from soil samples of China by PCR amplification using two pairs of primers for the cyt1 and cyt2 genes. Three type strains of serotypes H11ac, H14 and H36, eight isolates belonging to H3, H14, H18 and H21, and one isolate of unknown serotype harbored cyt genes. We also tested the cytolytic activity for mammal cells, the hemolytic activity for sheep erythrocytes and insecticidal activity against mosquitoes of five isolates that contained cyt genes but did not belong to B. thuringiensis serovar israelensis. The protein profiles of the five isolates were different from those of the type strains of B. thuringiensis serovar israelensis, and among the five isolates, only Y-5 showed mosquitocidal activity against larvae of Culex quinquefasciatus. All five of the isolates exhibited hemolytic activity, but only three could cause the cell death of A549 cells. The cytopathological changes induced by NX-4 in some A549 cells were characterized with cell-ballooning. 相似文献

Effect of NaCl on the in vitro Activity of Malate Dehydrogenase in Salt Marsh Halophytes of the U.S.
The in vitro effect of NaCl on NAD-malate dehydrogenase (E.C. 1.1.1.37; MDH) from desalted extracts of roots and leaves of six salt marsh halophytes was investigated. The plants, all native and important constituents of the salt marshes of the east coast of the U.S., included Spartina alterniflora Loisel., Spartina patens (Aiton) Muhl., Distichlis spicata (L.) Greene, Juncus roemerianus Schleele, Salicornia virginica L., and Borrichia frutescens (L.) DC. In the leaf extracts of all species except Borrichia frutescens, the MDH activity was slightly stimulated by NaCl at concentrations around 0.05 M at optimal pH (8.0–8.5) and was reduced by NaCl in higher concentrations. MDH activity in the leaf extract of Borrichia frutescens was more salt-tolerant and maximal activity occurred around 0.25 M NaCl at optimal pH (7.0). Even though similar pH optimums for activity were exhibited in the root and leaf extracts of each species, the MDH activity in the root extract was more salt-tolerant than that in the leaf extract. NaCl at concentrations up to 0.1 M stimulated the MDH activity in the root extracts of all species except that of Borrichia frutescens, which had an optimal activity in 0.5 M NaCl. In the root and leaf extracts of Borrichia frutescens, the activity of cytosol MDH was much more salt-tolerant than that of the mitochondrial MDH. A shift of the optimal pH to more acidic values with increasing concentrations of NaCl was noted in the extracts of all the species except Borrichia frutescens. The action of NaCl on MDH activity appeared to be a general ionic effect as judged by the response of the enzyme activity in the presence of iso-ionic concentrations of other salts and isoosmotic mannitol. Thus, the response of the MDH from five of the salt marsh plants to NaCl is similar to that of glycophytes. However, Borrichia frutescens possesses a salt-tolerant MDH that has optimal activity in a salt concentration as high as that of the environment. 相似文献

Aims: The aim of this study was to select and examine Saccharomyces and Brettanomyces brewing yeasts for hydrolase activity towards glycosidically bound volatile compounds. Methods and Results: A screening for glucoside hydrolase activity of 58 brewing yeasts belonging to the genera Saccharomyces and Brettanomyces was performed. The studied Saccharomyces brewing yeasts did not show 1,4‐β‐glucosidase activity, but a strain dependent β‐glucanase activity was observed. Some Brettanomyces species did show 1,4‐β‐glucosidase activity. The highest constitutive activity was found in Brettanomyces custersii. For the most interesting strains the substrate specificity was studied and their activity was evaluated in fermentation experiments with added hop glycosides. Fermentations with Br. custersii led to the highest release of aglycones. Conclusions: Pronounced exo‐β‐glucanase activity in Saccharomyces brewing yeasts leads to a higher release of certain aglycones. Certain Brettanomyces brewing yeasts, however, are more interesting for hydrolysis of glycosidically bound volatiles of hops. Significance and Impact of the Study: The release of flavour active compounds from hop glycosides opens perspectives for the bioflavouring and product diversification of beverages like beer. The release can be enhanced by using Saccharomyces strains with high exo‐β‐glucanase activity. Higher activities can be found in Brettanomyces species with β‐glucosidase activity. 相似文献

We compared six biochemical measures of nutritional condition: citrate synthase activity (CS), malate and lactate dehydrogenase activity (MDH and LDH), RNA:DNA ratio, and percent body protein and lipid. Adult females of five species of calanoid copepod (Calanoides acutus, Calanus propinquus, Metridia gerlachei, Rhincalanus gigas and Paraeuchaeta antarctica) were collected in the marginal ice zone of the northwestern Weddell Sea at the time of the annual phytoplankton bloom that occurs in association with the receding ice edge during austral spring. Three zones within the marginal ice zone were sampled: heavy-ice-cover pre-bloom, ice-edge bloom and low-ice-cover post-bloom. Lipid generally increased greatly from ice-covered to open water zones, and its importance in the life of polar copepods cannot be overstated. Increases in protein from ice-covered to open water were also observed, but were of less significance. Each species exhibited significant changes in at least one enzyme activity level. Citrate synthase activity in C. acutus, C. propinquus and R. gigas, all herbivores, increased between pre- and post-bloom stations. C. propinquus and M. gerlachei, which feed during winter, had large increases in LDH activity between pre- and post-bloom stations. Rhincalanus gigas and P. antarctica, the two largest species studied, showed variations in MDH activity, with peak enzyme activity occurring in post-bloom stations. RNA:DNA ratio did not change in any species. The effects of size, shipboard handling and freezer storage were easily corrected statistically, and did not alter any conclusions. The patterns observed in copepod nutrition at the Antarctic ice edge were consistent with existing models of life history for each species. The observations reported here, in conjunction with previously reported data, suggested that measurement of metabolic enzyme activity, especially in concert with lipid, enables estimation of nutritional condition in adult copepods. Additional studies comparing metabolic activity and ecology of common species should yield more information on the ecology of rarer species. 相似文献

The efficiency of several promoters (pin2 from potato, ubiquitin from sunflower, rolC from Agrobacterium rhizogenes, act1 from rice and CaMV 35S from cauliflower mosaic virus) fused to the uidA reporter gene was measured after biolistic bombardment of birch leaves (Betula pendula L.). The highest level of β-glucuronidase (GUS) activity was achieved with the pin2 promoter and the lowest activity with the CaMV 35S promoter. The activity of the potato wound-inducible promoter (pin2) was also tested in stably transformed birch. The promoter showed induced activity after mechanical wounding and feeding
by leaf weevils. The systemic effect was confirmed by enhanced GUS activity in non-wounded leaves. The results of this study
indicated that the potato wound-inducible promoter maintains its function in birch and would be a suitable promoter in studies
of insect-birch interaction at the molecular level.

The regulation of amylase activity in threeDrosophila species, D. melanogaster,D. funebris and D. saltans, wasanalyzed by measuring the specific activity levels infour dietary environments, cornmeal, glucose, 5% starch, and 10% starch, at threedevelopmental stages, i.e., the third-instar larval,pupal, and 2-day-old adult stages. The developmentalprofiles of amylase activity for the threeDrosophila species showed that the level of activity washigh at the larval and adult stages but substantiallylow at the pupal stage, suggesting thatDrosophila does not utilize starch at the pupalstage. Divergence in the regulation of amylase was observed amongthe three Drosophila species on the followingpoints. (1) The order of amylase specific activity wasD. melanogaster > D. funebris >D. saltans. (2) The response pattern to the dietary environment varied amongthe species and changed during development. (3) Thetiming of the switch in the response pattern to thedietary environment during development was before pupation in D. funebris and D.saltans but after pupation in D.melanogaster. The significance of the divergence inthe regulation of amylase activity for adaptation to astarch environment in Drosophila is discussed. 相似文献

Regulation of the phosphate regulon of Escherichia coli: Characterization of the promoter of the pstS gene 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Summary The pstS gene belongs to the phosphate regulon whose expression is induced by phosphate starvation and regulated positively by the PhoB protein. The phosphate (pho) box is a consensus sequence shared by the regulatory regions of the genes in the pho regulon. We constructed two series of deletion mutations in a plasmid in vitro, with upstream and downstream deletions in the promoter region of pstS, which contains two pho boxes in tandem, and studied their promoter activity by connecting them with a promoterless gene for chloramphenicol acetyltransferase. Deletions extending into the upstream pho box but retaining the downstream pho box greatly reduced promoter activity, but the remaining activity was still regulated by phosphate levels in the medium and by the PhoB protein, indicating that each pho box is functional. No activity was observed in deletion mutants which lacked the remaining pho box or the-10 region. Therefore, the pstS promoter was defined to include the two pho boxes and the-10 region. The PhoB protein binding region in the pstS regulatory region was studied with the deletion plasmids by a gelmobility retardation assay. The results suggest the protein binds to each pho box on the pstS promoter. A phoB deletion mutant was constructed, and we demonstrated that expression of pstS was strictly dependent on the function of the PhoB protein. 相似文献

We have found that the phenol oxidase activity in 50-hr Drosophila melanogaster pupae is much greater than that of adult flies. The mutants lz and lz
g have all of the phenol oxidase components present in wild type, whereas the mutant tyr-1 has all of the wild-type components but the activity of each component is greatly reduced in comparison with wild-type activity. The newly discovered lozenge allele, lz
rfg, lacks all phenol oxidase activity.Predoctoral fellow supported by Grant GM 1974 from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences, National Institutes of Health.The Oak Ridge National Laboratory is operated for the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission by Union Carbide Corporation. 相似文献

The role of the adipokinetic hormone (AKH) in the control of protease, amylase and lipase activities is examined using the cockroach Periplaneta americana and the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster as model species. The effects of Peram‐CAH‐I and ‐II on the activity of cockroach digestive enzymes in the gastric caeca and midgut are measured both in vivo and in vitro. The results show the activity of proteases, amylases and lipases in both parts of the gut: amylase activity is higher in the gastric caeca than in the midgut; lipase activity presents the opposite trend; and protease activity is similar in both organs. The applied hormones stimulate the activity of all digestive enzymes, although this stimulation is not uniform; AKHs affect enzymes selectively, and in some cases unequally, in the gastric caeca and midgut. No substantial differences between Peram‐CAH‐I and ‐II stimulation are recorded. The in vitro results demonstrate that AKH stimulates digestive enzyme activity directly. In agreement with the cockroach results, enzymatic activity in D. melanogaster larvae producing nonfunctional AKH is lower than that in the larvae with ectopically expressed Akh gene, where enzyme activity reaches or even exceeds that of the controls. Overall, the results demonstrate the active role of AKHs in the stimulation of digestive enzyme activity in insects. 相似文献

The lexA–imuB–dnaE2 gene cassette contributing to the TLS (translesion synthesis) polymerase activity and can easily cause mutation after DNA damage in many bacteria. But it was previously thought that TLS polymerase activity was unlikely to exist in the radio-resistant genus Deinococcus. In our preliminary studies, the lexA–imuB–dnaE2 gene cassette was found in a newly isolated feather-degrading Deinococcus ficus. Here we have attempted to determine the imuB gene sequence from another Deinococcus species namely D. grandis, by using the newly designed primers. The destroying of either imuB or dnaE2 gene in D. ficus leads to the increase in UV sensitivity and decrease in UV-induced mutations, which demonstrated the existence of TLS polymerase activity in D. ficus. In the presence of lexA–imuB–dnaE2, it is possible to obtain mutants with various keratinolytic activities after UV exposure. The keratinolytic activity of mutant strain CC-ZG207 increased by approximately twofold during growth in liquid feather medium. In contrast, the mutant strain CC-ZG227 showed only half of the keratinolytic activity compared with the wild type strain. By utilizing SDS–PAGE and zymogram profile analysis, the change in the protease activity was observed. We have proposed that the superior mutants of D. ficus can be created under UV stress, which is mediated by the lexA–imuB–dnaE2 gene cassette. 相似文献

A new host specificity was discovered with the insecticidal protein encoded by the cryV gene. The cryV gene was cloned from the Bacillus thuringiensis kurstaki INA-02 strain, which was selected among a number of B. thuringiensis isolates because of its high activity against Spodoptera litura. Analyses by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) revealed that INA-02 contained the cryIA(a) and cryV genes. Since no Spodoptera activity was observed with B. thuringiensis sotto, which contained only cryIA(a), insecticidal activity of the protein encoded by the cryV gene was investigated with several insect species including S. litura. For bioassay, the cryV gene was highly expressed in an acrystalliferous B. thuringiensis strain, BT51. The CryV protein from BT51 was assayed against larvae of three lepidopteran species, Bombyx mori, S. litura, and Plutella xylostella. The protein was highly active against S. litura and P. xylostella, suggestive that the protein contributes to the unique activity of INA-02. 相似文献

The somatic and germinal activity of the maize transposable element, Ac, has been analysed in progeny of 43 transformants of A. thaliana using a streptomycin resistance assay to monitor Ac excision. The ability to assay somatic activity enabled, for the first time, a detailed analysis of Ac activity in individual A. thaliana seedlings to be made. The effects of T-DNA copy number, generation, dosage at each locus, flanking sequences and orientation of the element were compared. The most striking observation was the variability in Ac activity in genotypically identical individuals and the poor penetrance of the variegated phenotype. In general, increasing Ac dosage increased both somatic and germinal excision frequencies. The majority of families from individuals selected as inheriting an excision event carried transposed Ac elements re-integrated in different positions in the genome. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to validate a physical activity (PA) questionnaire, Questionnaire d'Activité Physique Saint-Etienne
(QAPSE), in an homogenous population of elderly subjects and to estimate its potential for application in routine PA assessments
in that age group. A group of 65 (31 men and 34 women) community dwelling, healthy people aged 65–84 years volunteered to
participate in a validation substudy comparing maximal oxygen uptake (
) and anthropometric data.
correlated positively with mean habitual daily energy expenditure (MHDEE) (r=0.56,P<0.0001), greater than 3MET (metabolic equivalent) daily energy expenditure (DEE) activity (r=0.371,P=0.002), leisure activity (r=0.368,P=0.003), sports activity (r=0.461,P<0.0001), basic daily activity (r=0.325,P=0.008) and moving DEE activity (r=0.273,P=0.028) in both sexes, with MHDEE (r=0.366,P=0.043) and moving DEE activity (r=0.388,P=0.031) in the men and with MHDEE (r=0.624;P<0.001), greater than 3MET DEE activity (r=0.513,P=0.002), leisure activity (r=0.388,P=0.024) and sports activity (r=0.683,P<0.001) in the women. The MHDEE was positively correlated with body mass (r=0.464) and with fat free mass (r=0.639) and negatively correlated with percentage body fat (r=−0.501). In a reproducibility substudy (n=44) a paired Student'st-test, based on mean differences between the two administrations of the questionnaire did not reach statistical significance
for any of the QAPSE activity scores studied. Test-retest correlation coefficients ranged from 0.648 for moving score to 0.967
for MHDEE with correlation coefficientP values being less than 0.001 for all of the QAPSE activity scores. We concluded that QAPSE demonstrated excellent repeatability
and good validity in relation to physical fitness and anthropometric data in the population of these healthy elderly volunteers. 相似文献

Heart rate, locomotor activity, and oxygen consumption were recorded simultaneously and continuously in seven individuals of the noble crayfish Astacus astacus (Linneus 1758) and seven individuals of the signal crayfish Pacifastacus leniusculus (Dana 1852). The recordings were made in the laboratory over 7 days at 15°C under a 12?:?12?h dark?:?light regime. Circadian rhythms in heart rate, locomotor activity and oxygen consumption were found both in A. astacus and P. leniusculus. Increased heart rate, locomotor activity, and oxygen consumption levels during night time in both A. astacus and P. leniusculus illustrated expression of nocturnal behaviour. No differences in oxygen consumption levels were observed between A. astacus and P. leniusculus. Also, no significant difference between heart rate levels or heart rate variances was found in A. astacus and P. leniusculus at night. During day, however, heart rate levels, heart rate variances and locomotor activity were higher in P. leniusculus than in A. astacus. The higher activity level in P. leniusculus than in A. astacus during daytime indicates that P. leniusculus is less strictly nocturnal than is A. astacus. 相似文献

The properties of the pacemaker controlling the adult locomotor activity rhythm of the high‐altitude Himalayan (haH) strain (Hemkund Sahib, 4121 m above sea level) of Drosophila helvetica are strikingly different from those of the low‐altitude Himalayan (laH) strain (Birahi, 1132 m above sea level) of the same species. The haH strain has a unimodal activity pattern with a delayed peak occurring about 4.5 h after lights‐on of the entraining light‐dark (LD) cycle, while the laH strain has a bimodal activity pattern with the morning and evening peaks. It is rather unusual for a wild type strain of any Drosophila species to have a unimodal activity pattern during entrainment as observed in the haH strain. The single activity peak of the haH strain is regarded as a consequence of delayed morning peak merging with the evening one. Three experiments were performed to test this hypothesis. The first experiment examined whether the single activity peak could be dissociated into two components by LD cycles in which photoperiods varied from 10 to 16 h per 24 h. The haH strain again exhibited a unimodal activity pattern with a delayed peak in 10, 12, and 14 h photoperiods but a bimodal activity pattern in 16 h photoperiod. The laH strain had bimodality in 10 and 12 h photoperiods, unimodality in a 14 h photoperiod, but complete arrhythmicity in a 16 h photoperiod.In the second experiment, the haH flies were transferred from LD 16∶8 to LL at 5 lux to confirm whether the bimodality of this strain in LD 16∶8 cycles was not the result of masking by the long photoperiod of 16 h. Bimodality of the haH strain persisted in LL too; moreover, the morning component free‐ran with period (τ) <24 h, while the evening component free‐ran with τ>24 h. The third experiment examined the LL‐induced splitting of activity peak of the haH strain. Flies were transferred from LD 12∶12 cycles to LL at 0, 1, 5, and 15 lux. The haH strain was rhythmic in LL at 0 and 1 lux with a unimodal activity pattern. It was also rhythmic in LL at 5 lux, but the single activity peak was split into two discrete components; the morning component free‐ran with τ<24 h, while the evening component free‐ran with τ>24 h. This strain, however, was completely arrhythmic in LL at 15 lux. The laH strain was uniformly arrhythmic in LL at all levels of light intensity. These results suggest that the single but late activity component of the haH strain during entrainment appears to be the consequence of merging the delayed morning peak with the evening one as an adaptation to the environmental conditions at the altitude of origin of this strain, where these flies begin activity in the forenoon owing to non‐permissible low temperature in the morning. 相似文献

Summary The growth and the sporulation of Trichoderma viride TS in relation to water activity (a
w) of sugar-beet pulp medium was studied. It was found that the maximum growth, monitored by protein production, substrate
utilization and pH alteration, appeared at a
w=0.990–0.992. Optimal water activity of the medium for sporogenesis was 0.980. It was observed that both physiological phenomena
appeared in narrow ranges of water activity which caused the rigorous a
w control in solid-state fermentation to be postulated. 相似文献

Abstract Spodoptera littoralis hemolymph exhibited a decrease in phenoloxidase activity during the first hour of exposure to alive or dead Xenorhabdus nematophilus and Photorhabdus luminescens even in the presence or absence of laminarin and α-chymotrypsin. Also, as the bacterial numbers in the hemolymph of the larvae of S. littoralis increased, the suppression of the enzyme, phenoloxidase, activity in vivo increased. On the other hand, in the in vitro incubation of the infected hemolymph with X. nematophilus for 30 min with laminarin, the decrease in phenoloxidase activity reached 92% in the infection with the highest dose (1 × 1010 cells/ml) live bacteria, and reached 100% at the same dose in the infection with live bacteria in the absence of laminarin. A two-fold decrease in enzyme activity was recorded in the case of injection of (1 × 106 cells/ml) dead X. nematophilus and the absence of laminarin compared with injection of the same dose in the presence of laminarin. The same trend was also observed by the end of incubation of X. nematophilus-treated hemolymph without α-chymotrypsin. The decrease in phenoloxidase activity was highly significantly different in injection of dead P. luminescens and the absence of laminarin during incubation. In the case of injection of (1 × 108 cells/ml) live P. luminescens a higher degree in the reduction of enzyme activity was recorded in the absence of α-chymotrypsin, where it reached to nearly a two-fold decrease. The results of these studies indicated that both X. nematophilus and P. luminescens alive or dead suppress the phenoloxidase activity in the presence or absence of both laminarin and α-chymotrypsin but, the suppression in absence of both during the in vitro incubation was highly comparable. 相似文献

Aqueous and solvent extracts of seeds of P. corylifolia were evaluated for antifungal activity by poisoned food technique against eight important phytopathogenic species of Fusarium commonly associated with maize seeds. Antifungal activity was observed in both aqueous and solvent extracts. Petroleum ether extract showed highly significant activity against all the Fusarium species. F. graminearum was highly susceptible, while F. lateritium was least susceptible. The antifungal activity increased with increasing concentration of the extract. The minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) value of the aqueous extract for F. graminearum was 15% and for F. equiseti, F. moniliforme, F. semitectum and F. solani it was 40%. Total inhibition was not observed in the case of F. lareritium, F. oxysporum and F. proliferatum. The results of the study are of immense value in the management of seed borne phytopathogenic species of Fusarium known to cause significant yield loss in maize. 相似文献

HP (2-20) (AKKVFKRLEKLFSKIQNDK-NH2) is an antibacterial 19-mer peptide derived from the N-terminal region of Helicobacter pylori ribosomal protein L1 (RPL1). Several truncated peptides were synthesized to investigate the effects of the N- or C-terminal regions of HP (2-20) on antimicrobial activity. The antimicrobial activity of the peptides was measured by their growth inhibitory effect upon Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella typhimurium, Saccharomyces cerevisae, Trichosporon beigelii and Candida albicans. Antimicrobial activity required a full length N-terminus. None of the peptides exhibited hemolytic activity against human erythrocyte cells. The membrane-disrupting activity of these peptides, using liposomes and 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene (DPH) as a probe, confirmed that the full N-terminal region of HP (2-20) is a prerequisite for antibiotic activity and that this region may facilitate penetration of the cell membrane. Circular dichroism indicated that the -helical structure of the peptides important for antimicrobial activity. 相似文献

Fungal enzyme activities were quantified in an interaction study between the fungus Glomus intraradices and the pea pathogen Aphanomyces euteiches. Fungal and host enzymes were separated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and the activity of A. euteiches–specific glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (Gd), phosphoglucomutase and peptidase (PEP) enzymes were quantified by densitometry.
The activity of A. euteiches–specific enzymes increased until 14 days after inoculation with A. euteiches, and then decreased. The plants preinoculated with G. intraradices showed no symptoms of severe root rot even though the pathogen was present and active in these plants. Thus, plants preinoculated
with G. intraradices were more tolerant of infection with A. euteiches than non-mycorrhizal plants. This effect was evident even though the A. euteiches infection levels of mycorrhizal and non-mycorrhizal plants were the same. A. euteiches enzyme activities in the mycorrhizal plants were different to those in non-mycorrhizal plants. The peaks of PEP and Gd enzyme
activity of A. euteiches were lower and the development of A. euteiches PEP activity was later in the mycorrhizal plants than in the non-mycorrhizal plants.
